Feng shui, a system of laws considered to govern spatial arrangement and orientation in relation to 
the flow of energy (qi), has been practiced for about 5,000 years and is very much in demand today.
The world is always changing, and qi is essential to how we and our spaces feel. Feng shui will make your space feel and work better by clearing blocks that obstruct the natural flow of energy. The front door is the first chance qi can get into a building, and if this door is hidden or obstructed in some way, this qi will keep moving past.
How we position our furniture; the colors we use; and where the stove, bathrooms and stairs are will affect us. Other things that will have an effect and play a role in our lives are buildings, foliage, roads, electrical power lines, who we have as neighbors, and how we are as neighbors. We can adjust any issues here.
Why not change your space first, then everything will fall into place. Before buying, consult a knowledgeable consultant to help select the best property. The bagua is a grid with nine areas (guas), and this is our energetic map to locate any blocks in a space.
The center of the bagua represents our health. The other eight guas are family, wealth, fame, relationships, children and creativity, helpful people, career and inner knowledge. We can attract a new career, relationships, money and more by adjusting the areas in our space.
I look at a floorplan and see if there are missing areas (gua) or protruding bits (extensions). There are different schools of feng shui, and each one can create amazing results when done by a certified consultant that is a good fit.
The law of attraction (LOA) states that onto which itself is drawn, or “like attracts like.” LOA is always working, bringing us what we think and feel on an energetic level. When life is a struggle, we are going against this natural flow and are not in alignment with who we are. The best way to attract what we want is to get to into our happy place. I have lots of ways to raise our vibrations to a better place. To attract what we want takes practice in aligning our intentions with how we feel; that is all there is to it. We have created everything we have. If we attracted what we see around us, we can intentionally create whatever we want to be, like, do and have.
What about the stuff that you don’t want—clutter? Honor it and let it go! I can help you do that. What do you get by letting go? Freedom and relief and space to attract what you do want!
Change your space first, and have the best possible place to be healthy, wealthy, happy and more.
